    His roles as Uncle Fester and Judge Doom are among his best and most iconic! They should have absolutely been included! Would‘ve loved to hear him talk about them.

    I watched the 'Back to the Future' trilogy with my 6-year-old nephew on the holidays. About five weeks after he went back to school, the teacher asked if anyone in the class had heard of Einstein. My nephew thrust his hand up in the air, and confidently said, "He's Doc Brown's dog!" 😂😂😂

    This man has been an active actor in the industry for over 60 years, he has said several times in interviews that there is no role that is too small for him to take, his resume is higher than his age, he's been in independent movies, plays, television, video games, cartoons, blockbuster movies, theme park attraction videos, and GQ only breaks down 5 of his iconic roles?! Christopher Lloyd has WAY MORE iconic roles than just 5!! What a dis-service to him, the marvelous actor that he is yet not getting the full recognition he deserves, and to us, the fans who grew up watching him!!

      That's also why I loved him in Camp Nowhere. He actually gets to PLAY a conman who puts on a bunch of different personas... and they aren't all super different, it's not a Mrs. Doubtfire situation, he just has to seem genuine to each group of parents. and totally nails it.

    Reverend Jim is easily one of the best television comedy characters of all time. 😄 The driver's license test, the scene where he's a door to door salesman, everything Christopher Lloyd did on that show was gold.

    Christopher Lloyd played a formative role in my childhood by starring as Cyberchase's villain, The Hacker.

This show did a great job at building me up to the math teacher I am today. Thank you, sir. Would have been nice to hear his thoughts on it.
